Mongol invasion?

[Rijul.J.Ballal]

I wonder if CA will make a mongol invasion expansion? I rather liked the first one and find it any interesting time period [And mongols are awesome]. I know they shall be concentrating on Rome 2 now but this seems like a interesting thing to do...
So would anyone else like it? or this present in Rots, i have not played it...

RotS is about 200 years before Mongols invaded historically, as for the expansion...i'd be happy to see it, but not at the expense of Rome2

[Xanto]

I wouldn't mind it, but with the Gold edition coming out it pretty much means all DLC for Shogun 2 is done.

[Shea O'Gorath]

Not going to happen.

[PlPs]

Would be great. but Rome 2 is coming, new expansion, don't think so...

[Rijul.J.Ballal]

hopefully a nice mod will come along...

[Shea O'Gorath]

With new voice acting and animations, armor, weapons. I dont think so.

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

I voted no since CA or a modder could easily put that into ROS. I agree that CA should release a DLC for ROS with Mongol invasions as a small campaign such as those in Napoleon but an actual expansion seems unnecessary.

Its a cool kinda "what if" scenario if the mongols actually managed to colonize the Japanese mainland and started their own conquest of the country. Of course they did invade and there were some engagements but mongols cautiously retreated back to their ships in case they were counter attacked by the Japanese and most of their fleet was destroyed by a tsunami. The second invasion failed also because of a tsunami but also because the Japanese built Coastal defenses to keep the mongols from landing.

This. There was indeed two mongol invasions, but none of them were effective. The first one was pushed back and failed, and from my understanding it triggered changes in fight styles among samurai, showing the need for melee skills. The second one didnt even land, did it? I think the storm destroyed them at sea.

Would be interesting to fight a non japanese faction in Shogun 2

[Rijul.J.Ballal]

^Yes some Korean factions thrown in the mix would also be great....

[Yoshitsune1189]

RotS long campaign ends in 1219 and the Mongol Invasions occurred in 1274 and 1281 so within a hundred years and little had changed in
Japanese armor, weapons and tactics. The first attack is often seen as a recce-in-force and the second was much larger. Both saw Yuan
forces land and considerable fighting in Kyushu.

The Mongol Invasion scrolls are a great source:

It is doubtful a modder could put together all the Yuan forces; Chinese, Mongol and Korean infantry, cavalry
and artillery with exploding bombs.

Doubtful there will be another DLC but this would be an epic close to TW Shogun2.

[Merchant of Venice]

Unfortunately it not happen. CA doesn't really have the resources to work on this and Rome 2. I would love to see this but not gonna happen.

[DeliCiousTZM]

Sorry based on ROTS. i wouldn't want more in this era ever.

[Rijul.J.Ballal]

^ not even for the Koreans and Mongols?

[TheCrazyCat]

6-7 months away from Rome. Id say its still a possibility

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

There will never be Korea, Sega is a Japanese company. It would be as taboo as a Chinese company making a game about the Japanese invasions in World War 2.
